This episode is a triathlon strategist\\u2019s dream come true!

Matt opens the lid on the coaching mindset as he dissects the planning and performance journey of Jesse Thomas\\u2019s successful podium finish at the recent Challenge Roth.

When great performances happen, especially with elite and professional athletes, most people assume it\\u2019s simply a result of some herculean amount of training that always had a perfect rhythm and flow. The truth is, triathlon training in a time-starved life is seldom that.

This is Matt\\u2019s personal case study of how he approached Jesse\\u2019s entire season and the lead-up to this \\u201cA\\u201d Race. Matt offers his in-depth thoughts, strategies, and even training sessions that went into this non-traditional approach to Ironman training.

You\\u2019ll, no doubt, absorb a few key lessons along the way centered around:

  • The importance of taking a break
  • Why you don\\u2019t always train just for the demands of the event
  • Why your training should have crystal clear clarity and purpose on every session and every day
  • Why you should remain flexible and not reliant on a static program that is based on a certain number of hours per week
  • The value of long-term coaching
